    If you're xp on gamecenter matches you're xp on your device, you're safe.

    My Gamecenter leaderboards weren't working at all pre-patch and now they are all correct.

    If you're not on the leaderboards, don't delete it and reinstall it. The local save will need to stay on the device in order to later resync with gamecenter.

    I cant believe there's more riflemen and gunners than the scouts! I always thought there were more scouts because of its speed and accuracy!.

    Okay, so now it gets really weird. But in a good way for me anyway.

    All along, i played mainly on the iPad. But it only uploaded certain things to gamecenter. It doesn't save the global or each class xp or kills so I wasn't listed anywhere. Or at least it didn't. Note I still haven't updated game on iPad.

    The update comes out. Only updated iPhone, not iPad as it had my main stats locally, after reading about some of your issues here.

    iPhone would crash so reinstalled and scout xp crossed over but nothing else. Deleted it from iPhone and decided to remove from gamecenter when it asked me.

    Checked in gamecenter on iPhone and game no longer listed there.

    Went back to iPad and played a few games. Clicked on the stats in game on iPad and opened in gamecenter.
    Now all my xp has saved to gamecenter for some strange reason.

    Reinstalled on iPhone and everything is now hunky dory across both devices. Xp, saves, stats, kills and everything now in sync.

    Plus I'm top of the leaderboard in kills. Damn it, now I'm third. Well second really as top guy is a booster.

    Arent computers great. They always like to do something to confuse ya.

    Check the last few posts on the thread. Some of the info should help.
    Most are just deleting and reinstalling and everything works fine again.
    Be sure and check that your leaderboard info in gamecenter is correct and that each of your classes xp is up there before you delete.
    Otherwise, don't delete because you'll need the local save.

    sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry a million times sorry to everyone

    BEFORE YOU UPDATE - open the game and make sure game center has all your stats in achievements and leaderboards

    then when you update it will be able to grab them

    Ah, shxt happens. What can ya do.

    It looks like that as long as your stats are all saved to gamecenter, problem solved.
    It failed initially for me, but it's all worked out now and all the stats are back so that's good. And both devices are fully synched now as well.

    I really hope the gamecenter works for everybody.

    As long as your achievements, kill stats, global xp and the xp for each of your classes is saved on gamecenter, you'll be fine.
    If they are not, go into the app, into your stats and open in gamecenter. Go into each of the individual achievements and leaderboards. This should upload them from your device to gamecenter if they are not there already.
    If after you've done this and your stats have uploaded, upgrade away. Even if the upgrade fails, just reinstall, open gamecenter and press play from there. That will open the app and load your stats locally. At least, that's what worked on one of my devices.

    Oh yeah, I also think you need to have gamecenter turned on in notifications. I don't know why but it worked quicker on another device when I had it turned on.

    Alright, I deleted and reinstalled because my achievements were in GC. Thankfully, my xp was restored so I'm back at level 11.

    However...all of my previously held achievements are gone with the exception of one. Plus some of the last few guns I earned are gone. Not a huge deal, bit still annoying.

    Anything else I can do to get the achievements back?

    Had a similar enough issue.
    What I did was basically close the game from multitasking, turn on gamecenter notifications, go into gamecenter, go to Trigger Fist and open up all the achievements and leaderboards.
    While doing it the stats and xp and stuff came up after a few seconds. It might take longer for some but the key is to let them load.
    Once you can see all your stats, achievements and xp are there, press on "play game" from gamecenter.
    That'll open up the app. It will take a few seconds while it downloads you're gamecenter info.
    That should work.
    Be sure to remove from multitasking bar before you start the above. It will help.

    It's important that while in gamecenter that you load up all the individual leaderboards. There's different ones for scout xp, global kills, goat time, rank, and so on. About nine in total I think. That's where your key stats are. Be sure and load them in the gamecenter app. It speeds up the transfer to the trigger fist app because the save data stored on gamecenter takes a bit of time to sync right.

    Edit. I know it's basically what I said in my previous post but hopefully I'm a bit clearer this time.

    Is anyone playing with two devices. I have the iphone 4S ( rank 9) and an ipod 4G (rank 7) I've been playing Trigger Fist on both.

    I updated the iphone4S and it needed to be reinstalled. After being reinstalled it updated with the ipod 4G's stats which were lower rank 7.

    I also tried playing a couple games on the 4S, and then i tried the ipod to see if the ipod would cross sync. Unfortunately did not sync stats from the iphone.

    I assumed that since it's on GC both devices would automatically sync the latest stats but I find that the ipod won't update stats???

    any help would be appreciated.

    Okay, this should work but I can't guarantee it. I'll assume that both devices are using the same gamecenter id. I'll also assume that all your stats, xp and unlocks are present on the 4s.
    Make sure gamecenter is turned on in notifications in both devices.
    Basically just delete the app from the iPod. When it asks if you want to keep or remove from gamecenter, hit remove. This is the important part.
    So now if you go into gamecenter on the iPod, Trigger Fist won't be there.
    Next open the game on the iPhone. Go to achievements and open in gamecenter. Next just open the gamecenter app on the 4s and double check that your most recent stats from the phone are in there as well.
    Then just reinstall on iPod. Open gamecenter on iPod and Trigger fist will be back in there with the stats from the 4s. Next just tap "play game" from within gamecenter app itself.
    This will open up Trigger Fist. It will take anywhere from a few seconds to half a minute to open and your stats should be the same then.
    That has worked for me a few times. I'm not guaranteeing it as their are obvious risks but it should work.
    I reckon it's some sort of dual device conflict that sorts itself out once the game is removed from the gamecenter of one device and then just reinstalled.
    And obviously both need to be connected to wifi at the time.

    Is gamecenter turned on in notifications? For some reason, in 5.1.1, gamecenter and notifications are linked in some way. If that doesn't work, I'd like to blame wifi signal but it's probably not that either and I'm out of ideas.
